McCulloch 10" electric pole saw March 9, 2010 W. E. Schnakenberg (Orange County, NY USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this saw from Amazon to cut some split and hanging branches off some snow storm damaged trees around my house.
It worked very well for what it was designed and I was able to cut some branches that were up to 6" in diameter. The only thing I did not like was the way the pole attached to the saw. You have to remove 4 phillips head screws to remove the 2 piece pole clamping mechanism from the saw. This is OK if you intend to leave the saw on the pole all the time, but taking it off and on between working on the tree and then on the ground is a PITA, especially since the screws can be dropped and lost in the grass.
It would have been a little easier if the two piece attachment was hinged on one side, so there were only 2 screws to remove, or even better, a hinge on one side and wing nut screws on the other side, so you didn't have to carry a screwdriver with you.
Otherwise it does the job.
High Quality. High Weight. Strong Spring in pole February 11, 2010 Brent A. Wahl Received as a holiday gift. I requested it after internet review of pole electric chain saws.
PRO: Good quality, cut well, sturdy, Good Price, good reach for most home owner chores.
CON: Heavy so unless you are strong and have some weight to you may be dangerous to use to high up above your head. Pole spring to extend pole reach is high so again a small person with limited strenght may have problems.
SUMMARY: Would buy again
McCulloh pole saw February 10, 2010 Aayric Hooten (Texas) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
What a great product.I had started with a manual pole saw that ended up getting broken by getting caught in a tree limb I was cutting down. For only a little bit more I went back and got the Electric pole saw. What a difference it made. What had already consumed 2 days to cut down a few limbs, I finished off what would have been another week of work in about 4 hours. Very easy to use. It is a little top heavy, especially when you have it fully extended, but should be easy enough to handle for most people. Not a problem myself, but I can see where some people would have problems. I couldn't recommend anything better. So glad I went this route instead of a manual pole saw. Well worth the money and so much cheaper than hiring someone to do the work for 10 times as much.
Works Great February 6, 2010 L. M. Tapia (Perris, CA) This item worked even better than expected. It is easy to use with plenty of power for my needs. I have many trees on my property that are now easy to keep under control. The saw can be used separately, which is very handy. The size of the saw is big enough for most cutting jobs yet small enough to not be intimidating. Highly recommended and a good value.
Fun packed pole saw January 27, 2010 power man (TX US) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After pruning two tall live oaks in my back yard (trees are about 35 years old), the saw is still going strong. Of course the quality is not like my gas powered Husqvarna, but still decent. The biggest difference is the chain oiler, which is not automatic. One has to push on the oil filler cap to squeeze the oil onto the chain. May seem akward, but other electrical pole saws don't have an oiler at all. The saw should be stored upright, otherwise the chain oil will leak all over the place. I had fun with the saw reaching higher than ever before.
